Let's say I want a recording studio on a linux box with a sb live, live drive etc
What software would be good (and open source) for the following.
multi-track recording (24+ channels preferably)
mastering
drum tracks
distortion for guitar and maybe vocals
:Pengy:

I found a nice drum program "hydrogen" for free. anyone know of something i can syth piano, or flute etc with?

if you have a keyboard you can use your soundcards gameport as midi in/out
oh yea you said you have livedrive
or you can use a mouse either in a program or with a virtual keyboard
i personally like muse
